Consul's behavior can be modified by certain environment variables.

# Environment variables
The Consul CLI will read the following environment variables to set
behavioral defaults. These can be overridden in all cases using
command-line arguments; see the
[Consul Commands documentation](https://www.consul.io/docs/commands/index.html)
for details.
The following table describes these variables:
<table>
<tr>
<th>Variable name</th>
<th>Value</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><tt>CONSUL_HTTP_ADDR</tt></td>
<td>The HTTP API address as a host:port pair</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><tt>CONSUL_HTTP_TOKEN</tt></td>
<td>The API access token required when access control lists (ACLs) are enabled</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><tt>CONSUL_HTTP_AUTH</tt></td>
<td>The HTTP Basic access credentials as a username:password pair</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><tt>CONSUL_HTTP_SSL</tt></td>
<td>Boolean (default False) to specify HTTPS connections</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><tt>CONSUL_HTTP_SSL_VERIFY</tt></td>
<td>Boolean (default True) to specify SSL certificate verification</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><tt>CONSUL_RPC_ADDR</tt></td>
<td>The RPC interface address as a host:port pair</td>
</tr>
